Brief Summary:
This study was designed to conduct Turkish validity and reliability study of Testing Emotionalism After Recent Stroke - Questionnaire TEARS-Q in order to use it for Turkish people with stroke
Detailed Description:
Post-stroke emotionality is defined as excessive and unseemly crying or laughing in the absence of a motivating stimulus or in response to stimuli that would not typically trigger such emotions Emotionality is a severe neurological condition marked by a loss of control over emotional responses This occurs at a rate of about 17 in the acute period 1 month following stroke Emotionality is classified as crying laughing or both crying and laughing Stroke patients are more likely than others to cry alone
Abnormal emotional responses in the acute phase following stroke are often recognized as part of the adaptation process which delays emotionality diagnosis It is critical in therapeutic practice to identify emotionality from other affective illnesses as well as mood and personality disorders Post-stroke sadness is sometimes misinterpreted with emotionality Underdiagnosis and misdiagnosis on the other hand have clinically detrimental implications such as increased social limitation worse quality of life and delayed help-seeking behavior
There are different scales evaluating emotionality in the literature Pathological Laughter and Crying Scale and Center for Neurological Sciences-Lability Scale have limited use in stroke patients and have uncertain psychometric properties no cut-off scores uncontrolled crying and laughing attacks cannot be evaluated in different sub-dimensions thats why the Testing Emotionalism After Recent Stroke - Questionnaire TEARS-Q was developed
The aim of this study is to provide a Turkish translation and cross-cultural adaption of the TEARS-Q as well as to assess the validity and reliability of the Turkish version in patients with acute stroke
The procedures and objectives of the research will be described to the participants verbally and in writing before to all evaluations and signed agreement will be collected from the participants
Participants in the research will complete a personal gender age weight height body mass index education level and medical history form comorbidity stroke side type of stroke stroke age constructed using available literature The Standardized Mini-Mental Test will be used to assess participants overall cognitive level the American National Institutes of Health NIHS Stroke Scale to assess stroke severity and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale to assess anxiety levels To assess construct validity the EQ-5D General Quality of Life Scale the Barthel Activities of Daily Living Index and the Neurological Sciences Center - Lability Scale will be applied
